People Matter

Earlier today I saw this story on Gawker.com:

"1950's Playmate Found Mummified in Home"

Wow.

Can you imagine dying and having no one notice it for nearly a year. Money can buy you a home, which she had. A career can give you something to do, which she also had. Sadly, the most impartant thing in life seemed to be lacking, people who care.

The world is full of tragedy, but the biggest tragedy of all is going through life alone. I am so grateful that God chose to make me a mother to a wonderful son. I am so grateful that God gave me the desire to stay home with him and to demonstrate daily just how much he means to me.

This story is very sad, but also a reminder for me that people are what really matter.

Namaste,
Ani
